The Mohawk people, known as Kanienʼkehá꞉ka in their own language, traditionally occupied lands in the Mohawk River Valley of New York State, extending into southern Quebec and eastern Ontario in Canada. Their territory was strategically important, controlling key waterways and trade routes within the easternmost territory of the Iroquois Confederacy.
For the obverse of the 2024 Proof Native America the Beautiful New York Coin, you will find a depiction of two members of the tribe. In this design, one tribal figure hands the other a bow. This is a nod to the ATB Designs from the US Mint that depicted Horatio Gates accepting the sword of John Burgoyne following the American defeat of British forces at the Battle of Saratoga.
In the reverse design of 2024 1 oz Proof NATB New York Silver Coins, the Native American Mint features a common design element used throughout the series. In this design, an American bald eagle head is set at the center of an eight-pointed star. The star includes arrowheads between each point in the star.
